Hollywood superstars: Start as a child star

Assistant Martin’s Promotion

Claire cherished his life, and the sound of the gunshot immediately gave up his idea of staying and filming.

“…Well, let’s look for it again. This place is really not suitable.” Director Kassovitz said nonchalantly.

“Indeed, it is very dangerous here. Even the union will not agree.” Producer Sparks raised practical obstacles.

Just when everyone was worrying about it and preparing to fly back to Los Angeles that day to inquire about suitable filming locations there, a faint voice came from next to them.

“Well, would you like to visit my hometown? My hometown is beautiful, and there is also the lake covered with metasequoias in the story. It is especially quiet in autumn…” The person who spoke was Claire’s assistant Martin

.

” Oh, really? Martin, where is your hometown? Is it also North Carolina? Claire asked curiously.

Martin’s presence has never been high, and he rarely takes the initiative to express his thoughts and opinions. This time, he actually invited everyone to visit his hometown, which was very sudden. “No, I am South Carolina

. Man, my hometown is a small town below Charleston. It is only 200km away from here and can be reached in two hours by car. “Martin explained.

200km, well, it’s really not that far.

“How about it, do you want to go? “Director Kassovitz asked.

“Go! It’s only after 1 o’clock now, and it’s only after 3 o’clock when we arrive in Charleston. We could go to Charleston and catch a flight back to Los Angeles. Not considered a delay. ” Claire suggested.

He decided to go and have a look. It was rare that Martin gave his own suggestion. He was also kind-hearted to help, of course he had to give face.

“Okay, then go and have a look without delay. ” Sparks and Kasowitz both agreed.

“Okay, I’ll call a cab right now! Arriving soon! “Martin was a little excited, and he happily ran to contact the car dealer.

…

After two hours, Claire and her party arrived at Martin’s hometown, Charleston.

This is a peaceful town, and time seems to have stopped here, still keeping It resembles the rural style of the 1940s and 1950s.

When Claire came to the street of this small town, he was surprised to find that he seemed to have seen this street before? It looked very familiar…

Isn’t this… in the movie, Noah The town where I live! It turns out that the final filming location of the movie is in Charleston!

Claire doesn’t know what to say. He doesn’t know how the Amazon butterflies flap their wings and stir up storms in Texas.

Now he just I feel that the inertia of the wheel of history is really strong! After going round and round, they finally arrived at this place.

Claire and the others followed Martin through the lively streets and the quietly flowing Ash River. Everyone stopped at By the lake, the tall cedar forest is lush and green. The water surface is sparkling…

This is the cedar water between Noah and Ellie where Noah and Ellie rowed in the movie. When Claire saw this scene, the scene in the movie came to mind.

“It’s very Great! Martin, your hometown is so beautiful! This place is so similar to the town described in the script! I can imagine how romantic it is to fall in love in such a beautiful environment! “Director Kassovitz took a deep breath and sighed.

“Then we chose Charleston as the main location? “Claire has nothing to say, this is fate. He confirmed with the other two gentlemen.

“Okay! Just settle here! “Sparks agreed with Claire’s suggestion.

“Great! I am very grateful to Mr. Sparks and Director Cassavetes for their recognition of my hometown, and thank my boss for his support…” Martin’s face was red with excitement and he talked a lot. It was already evening, the setting sun was setting, and the lake was covered

by It was stained red. From nowhere, a group of birds flew in, perched on the water’s edge, and seemed to be looking for food…

After

a local dinner in the small town of Charleston, the three of Claire set off, Fly back to Los Angeles.

Martin did not go with Claire this time.

Claire saw that Martin had already arrived at the door of the house and had to stay at home no matter what, so she gave him a week’s leave. What he told Martin was not finished yet. , Sparks next to him spoke.

“Martin, I need your help here. You are a local in the town, so it is easier to do things. You need to contact the local town government, police department and residents committee, as well as suitable hotels…”

Producer Sparks explained. He handed over all the early contact work of the crew to Martin. These tasks are actually The work content of the external producer.

Claire interrupted Mr. Sparks, “Wait a minute, Mr. Sparks. This is my assistant. You need to be paid for arranging the work! This goes beyond Martin’s job as an assistant! “Hahahaha~ OK! ”

OK! Then I officially hired Martin as an external producer during the filming period, responsible for the crew’s liaison and communication during the filming in Charleston. As for the remuneration, how about it be based on the normal market price? Mr. Sparks said with a smile.

“Martin, are you willing to accept this job?” “Claire turned to look at Martin. This still depends on Martin’s own wishes. Claire cannot make decisions for him.

“Well, thank you Mr. Sparks for your trust. I am willing to accept this task! “Martin pursed his lips and replied with firm eyes.

Claire was very pleased to hear Martin’s reply. Martin has always been very silent, inconspicuous, and has a tight mouth. He is a qualified assistant. However, he can’t do this all his life. Assistants also need to make progress and move up!

This time is a very precious opportunity. Martin can start from the position of external producer, learn little by little and improve. In the future, he may not be able to become an executive with real power on the crew. Producer.

…

“Then let’s go!” Martin, read the script carefully! “Claire left the script of “The Notebook” to Martin. Even if you are an external producer, you must read the script and understand the plot. This is basic ethics. “Don’t worry

! Boss, I will read it carefully! “Martin’s voice was much louder than before. This is the confidence and courage that career brings to people!

…

Back to Los Angeles.

The remaining work is not something Claire can help with. But He didn’t just throw his hands away, but followed the veteran producer Sparks. Let’s see how he assembled a film crew. In the future, he wants to make a

movie and understand the whole process. Essential. Although the Hollywood film industry is very mature and does not require you to do everything yourself, as a qualified film producer, it is necessary to understand and master the common sense of all aspects.
